Bully -- Bully Game Review --

Introduction

Bully is a 3rd person player game, made in 2006 that is arguably one of the best games Rockstar has ever made, Bully is essentially a bootleg version of the GTA-series, as there are fewer things do to with guns, instead, there are items such as, slingshots,spud-guns and many more!

 

Story-line and Gameplay


So the story starts, as your character, Jimmy Hopkins is left at the gates of Bullworth Academy,
as you explore the world around you will see that the main characters reveal themselves, you later see that this school is the named by many, as the worst school across America, as you arrive, people, recognize you and one person called Gary Smith "offers" help in this horrid school, he introduces you to the "surrounding environment" as in, the people that are in this school, later you realise there are many cliques of people, ranging from nerds-to-jocks

here are all the groups in the world:

• The Nerds
• The Bullies
• The Preppies
• The Greasers
• The Jocks
• The Townies.

All of these cliques are turned on against you as the same person (Gary Smith) that offers you help in the school betrays you and somehow convinces all of the cliques that they are your enemy one by one!

I like the story of this game and rate the story 9/10.


Now to talk about the gameplay, the gameplay is more like melee combat although there are also other weapons available such as throwable fireworks!.
here is a list of weapons you can use:

• A Slingshot
• A Spud-Gun
• Throwable Fireworks
• Marbles
• Itching Powder
• Stink Gas
• Interactable Items Around Your Environment
• And Of Course Your Fists.

The gameplay can be compared to RPG mechanics as its health-based game. The gameplay is similar to the famous GTA-Series although in this game there is no fatally injuring a person, instead, the person gets knocked out:


as seen in this screenshot, you knock someone out, not fatally injuring them!

There is also extra peripherals such as:

• A Skateboard
• A Camera
• The Time!

In this game, you can change your attire to fancy your style, by doing side-missions you can unlock vehicles, more powerful weapons and much more!

The game takes about 60-65 hours to complete if you decide to do main-missions only.

I would rate the gameplay 9/10. (as it's satisfying to roam around and abrupt someone with a fist)

Graphics And System Requirements

As I have stated this game was made in 2006, for modern times the graphics are not the most appealing thing to look at, its a great relief that the gameplay and story are outstanding. Although the graphics are not top-notch if you do have a spare copy of GTA-V, then you are in great luck as there is a fix for the graphics, as there is a mod you can install to play Bully on GTA-V.

Although if you are a retro-type of player then you can enjoy the game delightfully with no flaws.
here is a picture of the graphics set to High:


as you can see the PC version seems to favour quality so you are in luck if you have the PC version.

As far as the system requirements go, for modern computers, they should run perfectly at 60fps at max with no trouble, here are the specifications of the game at a minimum :

• CPU: Intel Pentium 4 (3+ GHZ) / AMD Athlon 3000+
• CPU SPEED: 3.0 GHz
• RAM: 1 GB
• OS: Windows XP / Windows Vista
• VIDEO CARD: DirectX 9.0c Shader 3.0 supported (NVIDIA GeForce 6800 or 7300 / ATI Radeon X1300 or better)
• TOTAL VIDEO RAM: 128 MB
• HARDWARE T&L: Yes
• PIXEL SHADER: 3.0
• VERTEX SHADER: 3.0
• SOUND CARD: Yes
• FREE DISK SPACE: 4.7 GB
